Restart your PC and clear any remaining applications from the start menu.
I recently needed to restart my PC because of a blue screen error. After the reboot, some old programs remain in the start menu with a generic icon, but clicking them doesn’t work. Here’s an illustration. I’m trying to eliminate certain leftover applications, like those shown earlier. Simply right-clicking and selecting uninstall leads directly to the control panel, where they aren’t visible. While I understand you can reinstall and then remove them, I’m curious if there’s a quicker method. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
Click on a program, choose "More" > "Open file location." The file explorer will appear at the location of the executable shortcut. Pick the files you wish to delete and press Delete.
